First Aid Awareness Course for the Teachers

SSESA’s First Aid Awareness Course for the Teachers of St. Stanislaus High School was held on Tuesday 16th October 2008 at the AV Room in the School. It had a very positive response from the teachers. Lasting almost two hours, the event was conducted by pediatric surgeon

Dr. Bhalchandra Jayakar (Batch of 1987). His wife, Dr. Priti, a laproscopic surgeon also accompanied him. Dr. Jayakar started his presentation seeking the blessings of the teachers who had once taught him. The extensive presentation covered a wide-range of issues from cuts, burns, fractures to dog bites, drowning and electric shocks. For such a long presentation, Dr. Jayakar kept up the tempo with his sense of humour.

The presentation was followed by a Q&A session where the teachers had an opportunity to clear their doubts. More than 50 teachers attended. They were very thankful to Dr. Jayakar and are looking forward to a follow-up session after a few months.

This event will be followed up by a First Aid Awareness Course for the Students, which will be held on 12th November at the school.
